Dissecção do giro denteado do hipocampo <ol><li> Em um rato anestesiado profundamente, cuidadosamente dissecar o cérebro fora do crânio e colocá-lo em gelada tampão fosfato (PBS). </li><li> Numa placa de Petri contendo PBS gelado, cortar o cérebro ao longo da fissura longitudinal do cérebro usando um bisturi, e cortou as regiões posterior à lambda (mesencéfalo, rombencéfalo e cerebelo). </li><li> Coloque o lado hemisfério cerebral medial para cima e, usando uma pinça, retire cuidadosamente o diencéfalo (tálamo e hipotálamo) sob um microscópio de dissecação. Isto irá expor o lado medial do hipocampo, permitindo a visualização do giro denteado. O giro denteado é distinguível de chifre de Amon pelas lacunas entre elas. Lesão do hipocampo ou área circundante tornará mais difícil isolar o giro denteado. </li><li> Inserir uma afiada ponta da agulha (por exemplo, calibre 27 com agulha) em cada lado do giro denteado (limites do giro denteado e chifre de Amon; Figura 1) e deslize as agulhas superficialmente ao longo do eixo septo-temporal do hipocampo para isolar o giro denteado. </li><li> Pegue o giro denteado isolados usando uma agulha ou pinça e colocá-lo em um tubo de amostra. A assim obtida amostra de tecido giro denteado pode ser usado imediatamente para qualquer ensaio ou armazenado em um congelador para uso posterior. </li><li> Isolar o giro denteado do outro hemisfério cerebral usando o mesmo método. </li></ol> Quantitativas PCR em tempo real O giro dentado foi isolado usando o método acima mencionado eo hipocampo restante foi dissecados como amostra o Amon chifre de camundongos selvagens. PCR em tempo real da beta-actina, TDO2, Dsp, Mrg1b e Tyro3 foram realizadas com o giro denteado e amostras do Amon chifre como descrito anteriormente 1. Primers 5&#39;-CTGGCGAGATCACGATGACG e 5&#39;-AAGCTACGCTGTTGTCTAACC foram usados ​​para Mrg1b e GCCTCCAAATTGCCCGTCA e 5&#39;-CCAGCACTGGTACATGAGATCA para Tyro3. Análise de microarray Experimentos de microarray foram realizados com homens do tipo selvagem ratos e camundongos heterozigotos para o alfa-isoforma de cálcio / calmodulina-dependente da proteína quinase II (alfa-CaMKII + / - ratos), como descrito anteriormente 1. Resumidamente, RNA isolado do hipocampo todo ou giro dentado de camundongos do tipo selvagem e mutante foi hibridizado com um rato Genoma Matriz 430 2.0 (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA), e cada GeneChip foi digitalizado por um GeneChip Affymetrix Scanner 3000 (GCS3000) . A análise foi realizada com GeneChip Microarray Analysis Suite versão 5.0.

Experimentos com animais foram realizados de acordo com o Instituto Nacional do Guia de Saúde para Cuidado e Uso de Animais de Laboratório, e aprovado pelo comitê de cuidados com animais e uso em Fujita Saúde University.

O giro denteado ocupa aproximadamente 25% a 30% do volume da formação do hipocampo 2,3. Ela tem uma composição única de células e desempenha um papel crucial em várias funções cerebrais. Portanto, as técnicas para isolar o giro denteado são úteis para analisar os eventos que ocorrem especificamente na região. Aqui, nós demonstramos um procedimento de forma eficiente dissecar o giro denteado do hipocampo de camundongos adultos e confirmou a precisão da técnica. Primeiro, estudo histológico revelou que o giro denteado foi separado sem contaminação por outras regiões (Figura 1), indicando que uma amostra giro denteado puro pode ser preparado. Segundo, que confirmou que o tecido é dissecado giro denteado através da realização de PCR em tempo real de giro denteado genes específicos, TDO2 e DSP, e genes de Amon chifre enriquecido, Mrg1b Tyro3 e 4 (Figura 2). As expressões mRNA de TDO2 (p = 0,000023; n é = 4 e 4, respectivamente) e DSP (p = 0,0000030; n é = 4 e 4, respectivamente) nas amostras de giro dentado foram detectados em níveis obviamente maior, enquanto Mrg1b (p = 0.000080, de n = 4 e 4, respectivamente) e Tyro3 (p = 0,00017; = 4 e 4, respectivamente) n foram níveis mais baixos do que aqueles em amostras do Amon chifre. Níveis de beta-actina expressão não diferiram nessas amostras (p = 0,11; n é = 4 e 4, respectivamente). Assim, poderíamos verificar se ou não o giro denteado foi exatamente dissecados através da realização de tais experimentos simples PCR em tempo real. Terceiro, para avaliar a utilidade deste método de dissecação, que compararam o nível de expressão de mRNA do hipocampo todo com a de giro dentado. Hipocampo todo e giro denteado obtido a partir do tipo selvagem (= 9 e 4, n é, respectivamente) e alfa-CaMKII + / - ratos (= n 18 e 4, respectivamente) foram processadas para análise de microarray, e para todos os genes marcados, a vezes mudança foi calculado dividindo-se o valor mutante pelo valor do tipo selvagem. Os resultados indicaram que as mudanças na expressão de mRNA, especialmente de giro denteado-moléculas específicas, tais como Dsp e TDO2, foram detectados com um aumento de até cinco vezes na sensibilidade em amostras de giro denteado em comparação com todo amostras do hipocampo (Tabela 1). Nós já demonstraram que o alfa-CaMKII + / - exibem comportamentos relacionados com ratos humanos transtornos psiquiátricos, como déficit de memória de trabalho e um ritmo exagerado infradianos 1,5. Além disso, as características morfológicas e eletrofisiológicas dos neurônios do giro denteado em ratos mutantes são muito semelhantes aos dos neurônios imaturos giro dentado em roedores normais, indicando que os neurônios nesses ratos mutantes não conseguem desenvolver a maturidade 1. Os imaturos expressão giro e para baixo-regulado denteado de DSP e TDO2 mRNA em alfa-CaMKII + / - ratos são consistentes com a constatação de que Dsp e TDO2 podem ser usados ​​como marcadores de células granulares madura no giro denteado (Ohira et al, inédito. dados). Tomados em conjunto, esta técnica de dissecção prático e preciso pode ser confiavelmente utilizado para estudos focado no giro dentado. Tecido giro denteado obtidos utilizando este método é aplicável a outros tipos de análises, bem como, incluindo análises de biologia celular e proteômica. <img src="/files/ftp_upload/1543/1543fig1.jpg" alt="figura 1" /> Figura 1. Verificação do giro denteado isolado pelo estudo histológico. Uma seção coronal do cérebro após isolar giro dentado foi processado para a coloração de Nissl (painel esquerdo), e um esquema adaptado do cérebro do rato atlas6 representa o aproximadamente o mesmo nível da seção mostrado no painel da esquerda (painel direito). Setas indicam as direções da inserção ponta da agulha. Barra de escala, 1 mm. <img src="/files/ftp_upload/1543/1543fig2.jpg" alt="figura 2" /> Figura 2. Verificação do giro denteado isolado por PCR em tempo real. O giro denteado e chifre de Ammon s obtidos a partir de quatro camundongos selvagens foram processadas para PCR em tempo real da beta-actina, TDO2, Dsp, Mrg1b e Tyro3. Resultados são apresentados como média ± SEM. Para a análise estatística, teste t Student foi empregado s, e os valores p são seguidos: beta-actina, p = 0,11; TDO2, p = 0,000023 (** 1); Dsp, p = 0,0000030 (** 2); Mrg1b, p = 0.000080 (** 3) e Tyro3, ​​p = 0,00017 (** 4). Tabela 1. . Microarray análise do hipocampo e giro denteado todo Genes diferencialmente expressos no giro denteado do hipocampo e toda a alfa-CaMKII + / - ratos foram determinados por cálculo a mudança vezes, de que a detectada em camundongos selvagens. Os dados foram analisados ​​para significância estatística pelo teste t de Student entre os s do tipo selvagem e alfa-CaMKII + / - ratos. Entre os genes cuja expressão apresentaram p &lt;0,05 emo giro denteado de + / alfa-CaMKII - ratos comparada com a de camundongos selvagens, o top 50 genes estão listados. Note que os números de amostras para giro denteado são muito menos do que os de hipocampo todo.

dissection of hippocampal dentate gyrus from adult mouse

O hipocampo é uma das áreas mais estudadas no cérebro por causa de seu importante papel funcional no processamento da memória e aprendizagem, sua plasticidade neuronal de células notável, e seu envolvimento na epilepsia, doenças neurodegenerativas, e transtornos psiquiátricos. O hipocampo é composto de regiões distintas, o giro denteado, que compreende principalmente neurônios granulares, e buzina de Amon, que compreende principalmente os neurônios piramidais, e as duas regiões estão conectadas por ambos os circuitos anatômicos e funcionais. Muitos mRNAs e proteínas diferentes são seletivamente expresso no giro denteado, e giro denteado é um site de neurogênese adulta, isto é, novos neurônios são gerados continuamente no giro denteado adulto. Para investigar mRNA e proteína expressão específica para o giro denteado, laser microdissecção de captura é frequentemente utilizado. Este método tem algumas limitações, no entanto, como a necessidade de aparelhos especiais e procedimentos de manuseio complicado. Neste protocolo de vídeo-gravadas, que demonstram uma técnica de dissecção para a remoção do giro dentado de camundongos adultos sob um estereomicroscópio. Amostras giro denteado preparados com essa técnica são adequados para qualquer ensaio, incluindo transcriptomic, proteômica, e análises de biologia celular. Nós confirmamos que o tecido é dissecado giro denteado através da realização de PCR em tempo real de giro denteado genes específicos, triptofano 2,3-dioxigenase (TDO2) e desmoplakin (DSP), e genes de Amon chifre enriquecido, Meis relacionados 1b gene (Mrg1b ) e TYRO3 a proteína tirosina quinase 3 (Tyro3). As expressões de mRNA TDO2 e Dsp nas amostras de giro dentado foram detectados em níveis mais elevados, obviamente, enquanto Mrg1b e Tyro3 foram níveis mais baixos do que aqueles em amostras do Amon chifre. Para demonstrar a vantagem deste método, foi realizada análise de DNA microarray, utilizando amostras de hipocampo todo e giro denteado. A expressão de mRNA de TDO2 e DSP, que são expressos seletivamente no giro dentado, no hipocampo todo + / alfa-CaMKII - ratos, exibiu 0,037 e 0,10 vezes alterações em relação ao do tipo selvagem ratos, respectivamente. No giro denteado isolado, no entanto, estas expressões exibidas 0,011 e 0,021 vezes alterações em relação ao do tipo selvagem camundongos, demonstrando que as mudanças de expressão gênica no giro denteado pode ser detectada com maior sensibilidade. Tomados em conjunto, esta técnica de dissecção prático e preciso pode ser confiavelmente utilizado para estudos focado no giro dentado.

Dissection of 6.5 dpc Mouse Embryos

Analysis of gene expression patterns during early stages of mammalian embryonic development can provide important clues about gene function, cell-cell interaction and signaling mechanisms that guide embryonic patterning. However, dissection of the mouse embryo from the decidua shortly after implantation can be a challenging procedure, and detailed step-by-step documentation of this process is lacking.

Here we demonstrate how post-implantation (6.5 dpc) embryos are isolated by first dissecting the uterus of a pregnant mouse (detection of the vaginal plug was designated day 0.5 poist coitum) and subsequently dissecting the embryo from maternal decidua. The dissection of Reichert's membrane is described as well as the removal of the ectoplacental cone.

Isolation of postimplantation-stage embryos allows one to study gene patterning and analyze cell-lineage decision making processes during embryonic development, but proper dissection of the early embryo can be challenging. This protocol describes a method for isolating early primitive-streak-stage embryos (~6.5 days post coitum [dpc]).

Dissection of Organs from the Adult Zebrafish

Over the last 20 years, the zebrafish has become a powerful model organism for understanding vertebrate development and disease.  Although experimental analysis of the embryo and larva is extensive and the morphology has been well documented, descriptions of adult zebrafish anatomy and studies of development of the adult structures and organs, together with techniques for working with adults are lacking. The organs of the larva undergo significant changes in their overall structure, morphology, and anatomical location during the larval to adult transition.  Externally, the transparent larva develops its characteristic adult striped pigment pattern and paired pelvic fins, while internally, the organs undergo massive growth and remodeling.  In addition, the bipotential gonad primordium develops into either testis or ovary.  This protocol identifies many of the organs of the adult and demonstrates methods for dissection of the brain, gonads, gastrointestinal system, heart, and kidney of the adult zebrafish. The dissected organs can be used for in situ hybridization, immunohistochemistry, histology, RNA extraction, protein analysis, and other molecular techniques.  This protocol will assist in the broadening of studies in the zebrafish to include the remodeling of larval organs, the morphogenesis of organs specific to the adult and other investigations of the adult organ systems.

This protocol describes a procedure for identifying and dissecting organs from the adult zebrafish.

Dissection of Oenocytes from Adult Drosophila melanogaster

In Drosophila melanogaster, as in other insects, a waxy layer on the outer surface of the cuticle, composed primarily of hydrocarbon compounds, provides protection against desiccation and other environmental challenges. Several of these cuticular hydrocarbon (CHC) compounds also function as semiochemical signals, and as such mediate pheromonal communications between members of the same species, or in some instances between different species, and influence behavior. Specialized cells referred to as oenocytes are regarded as the primary site for CHC synthesis. However, relatively little is known regarding the involvement of the oenocytes in the regulation of the biosynthetic, transport, and deposition pathways contributing to CHC output. Given the significant role that CHCs play in several aspects of insect biology, including chemical communication, desiccation resistance, and immunity, it is important to gain a greater understanding of the molecular and genetic regulation of CHC production within these specialized cells. The adult oenocytes of D. melanogaster are located within the abdominal integument, and are metamerically arrayed in ribbon-like clusters radiating along the inner cuticular surface of each abdominal segment. In this video article we demonstrate a dissection technique used for the preparation of oenocytes from adult D. melanogaster. Specifically, we provide a detailed step-by-step demonstration of (1) how to fillet prepare an adult Drosophila abdomen, (2) how to identify the oenocytes and discern them from other tissues, and (3) how to remove intact oenocyte clusters from the abdominal integument. A brief experimental illustration of how this preparation can be used to examine the expression of genes involved in hydrocarbon synthesis is included. The dissected preparation demonstrated herein will allow for the detailed molecular and genetic analysis of oenocyte function in the adult fruit fly.

Dissection of the Adult Zebrafish Kidney

Researchers working in the burgeoning field of adult stem cell biology seek to understand the signals that regulate the behavior and function of stem cells during normal homeostasis and disease states. The understanding of adult stem cells has broad reaching implications for the future of regenerative medicine1. For example, better knowledge about adult stem cell biology can facilitate the design of therapeutic strategies in which organs are triggered to heal themselves or even the creation of methods for growing organs in vitro that can be transplanted into humans1. The zebrafish has become a powerful animal model for the study of vertebrate cell biology2. There has been extensive documentation and analysis of embryonic development in the zebrafish3. Only recently have scientists sought to document adult anatomy and surgical dissection techniques4, as there has been a progressive movement within the zebrafish community to broaden the applications of this research organism to adult studies. For example, there are expanding interests in using zebrafish to investigate the biology of adult stem cell populations and make sophisticated adult models of diseases such as cancer5. Historically, isolation of the zebrafish adult kidney has been instrumental for studying hematopoiesis, as the kidney is the anatomical location of blood cell production in fish6,7. The kidney is composed of nephron functional units found in arborized arrangements, surrounded by hematopoietic tissue that is dispersed throughout the intervening spaces. The hematopoietic component consists of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and their progeny that inhabit the kidney until they terminally differentiate8. In addition, it is now appreciated that a group of renal stem/progenitor cells (RPCs) also inhabit the zebrafish kidney organ and enable both kidney regeneration and growth, as observed in other fish species9-11. In light of this new discovery, the zebrafish kidney is one organ that houses the location of two exciting opportunities for adult stem cell biology studies. It is clear that many outstanding questions could be well served with this experimental system. To encourage expansion of this field, it is beneficial to document detailed methods of visualizing and then isolating the adult zebrafish kidney organ. This protocol details our procedure for dissection of the adult kidney from both unfixed and fixed animals.
Dissection of the kidney organ can be used to isolate and characterize hematopoietic and renal stem cells and their offspring using established techniques such as histology, fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS)11,12, expression profiling13,14, and transplantation11,15. 
We hope that dissemination of this protocol will provide researchers with the knowledge to implement broader use of zebrafish studies that ultimately can be translated for human application.

The zebrafish kidney is home to both renal and hematopoietic adult stem/progenitor cells, and represents an outstanding opportunity to study these cell types and their progeny in a vertebrate model organism. Here, we demonstrate a detailed dissection procedure that enables the researcher to identify and surgically remove the adult zebrafish kidney, which can be used for applications such as cell isolation, transplantation, and expression studies of kidney and/or blood cell populations.

Heart Dissection in Larval, Juvenile and Adult Zebrafish, Danio rerio

Zebrafish have become a beneficial and practical model organism for the study of embryonic heart development (see recent reviews1-6), however, work examining post-embryonic through adult cardiac development has been limited7-10. Examining the changing morphology of the maturing and aging heart are restricted by the lack of techniques available for staging and isolating juvenile and adult hearts. In order to analyze heart development over the fish's lifespan, we dissect zebrafish hearts at numerous stages and photograph them for further analysis11. The morphological features of the heart can easily be quantified and individual hearts can be further analyzed by a host of standard methods. Zebrafish grow at variable rates and maturation correlates better with fish size than age, thus, post-fixation, we photograph and measure fish length as a gauge of fish maturation. This protocol explains two distinct, size dependent dissection techniques for zebrafish, ranging from larvae 3.5mm standard length (SL) with hearts of 100&mu;m ventricle length (VL), to adults, with SL of 30mm and VL 1mm or larger. Larval and adult fish have quite distinct body and organ morphology. Larvae are not only significantly smaller, they have less pigment and each organ is visually very difficult to identify. For this reason, we use distinct dissection techniques.
We used pre-dissection fixation procedures, as we discovered that hearts dissected directly after euthanization have a more variable morphology, with very loose and balloon like atria compared with hearts removed following fixation. The fish fixed prior to dissection, retain in vivo morphology and chamber position (data not shown). In addition, for demonstration purposes, we take advantage of the heart (myocardial) specific GFP transgenic Tg(myl7:GFP)twu34 (12), which allows us to visualize the entire heart and is particularly useful at early stages in development when the cardiac morphology is less distinct from surrounding tissues. Dissection of the heart makes further analysis of the cell and molecular biology underlying heart development and maturation using in situ hybridization, immunohistochemistry, RNA extraction or other analytical methods easier in post-embryonic zebrafish. This protocol will provide a valuable technique for the study of cardiac development maturation and aging.

Generation of Mice Derived from Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

The production of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from somatic cells provides a means to create valuable tools for basic research and may also produce a source of patient-matched cells for regenerative therapies. iPSCs may be generated using multiple protocols and derived from multiple cell sources. Once generated, iPSCs are tested using a variety of assays including immunostaining for pluripotency markers, generation of three germ layers in embryoid bodies and teratomas, comparisons of gene expression with embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and production of chimeric mice with or without germline contribution2. Importantly, iPSC lines that pass these tests still vary in their capacity to produce different differentiated cell types2. This has made it difficult to establish which iPSC derivation protocols, donor cell sources or selection methods are most useful for different applications.
The most stringent test of whether a stem cell line has sufficient developmental potential to generate all tissues required for survival of an organism (termed full pluripotency) is tetraploid embryo complementation (TEC)3-5. Technically, TEC involves electrofusion of two-cell embryos to generate tetraploid (4n) one-cell embryos that can be cultured in vitro to the blastocyst stage6. Diploid (2n) pluripotent stem cells (e.g. ESCs or iPSCs) are then injected into the blastocoel cavity of the tetraploid blastocyst and transferred to a recipient female for gestation (see Figure 1). The tetraploid component of the complemented embryo contributes almost exclusively to the extraembryonic tissues (placenta, yolk sac), whereas the diploid cells constitute the embryo proper, resulting in a fetus derived entirely from the injected stem cell line.
Recently, we reported the derivation of iPSC lines that reproducibly generate adult mice via TEC1. These iPSC lines give rise to viable pups with efficiencies of 5-13%, which is comparable to ESCs3,4,7 and higher than that reported for most other iPSC lines8-12. These reports show that direct reprogramming can produce fully pluripotent iPSCs that match ESCs in their developmental potential and efficiency of generating pups in TEC tests. At present, it is not clear what distinguishes between fully pluripotent iPSCs and less potent lines13-15. Nor is it clear which reprogramming methods will produce these lines with the highest efficiency. Here we describe one method that produces fully pluripotent iPSCs and "all- iPSC" mice, which may be helpful for investigators wishing to compare the pluripotency of iPSC lines or establish the equivalence of different reprogramming methods.

Generating induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines produces lines of differing developmental potential even when they pass standard tests for pluripotency. Here we describe a protocol to produce mice derived entirely from iPSCs, which defines the iPSC lines as possessing full pluripotency1.

Isolation and Culture of Primary Mouse Keratinocytes from Neonatal and Adult Mouse Skin

The keratinocyte (KC) is the predominant cell type in the epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin. Epidermal KCs play a critical role in providing skin defense by forming an intact skin barrier against environmental insults, such as UVB irradiation or pathogens, and also by initiating an inflammatory response upon those insults. Here we describe methods to isolate KCs from neonatal mouse skin and from adult mouse tail skin. We also describe culturing conditions using defined growth supplements (dGS) in comparison to chelexed fetal bovine serum (cFBS). Functionally, we show that both neonatal and adult KCs are highly responsive to high calcium-induced terminal differentiation, tight junction formation and stratification. Additionally, cultured adult KCs are susceptible to UVB-triggered cell death and can release large amounts of TNF upon UVB irradiation. Together, the methods described here will be useful to researchers for the setup of in vitro models to study epidermal biology in the neonatal mouse and/or the adult mouse.

Epidermal keratinocytes form a functional skin barrier and are positioned at the front line of host defense against external environmental insults. Here we describe methods for isolation and primary culture of epidermal keratinocytes from neonatal and adult mouse skin, and induction of terminal differentiation and UVB-triggered inflammatory response from keratinocytes.

Isolation, Characterization, and Differentiation of Cardiac Stem Cells from the Adult Mouse Heart

Myocardial infarction (MI) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality around the world. A major goal of regenerative medicine is to replenish the dead myocardium after MI. Although several strategies have been used to regenerate myocardium, stem cell therapy remains a major approach to replenish the dead myocardium of an MI heart. Accumulating evidence suggests the presence of resident cardiac stem cells (CSCs) in the adult heart and their endocrine and/or paracrine effects on cardiac regeneration. However, CSC isolation and their characterization and differentiation toward myocardial cells, especially cardiomyocytes, remains a technical challenge. In the present study, we provided a simple method for the isolation, characterization, and differentiation of CSCs from the adult mouse heart. Here, we describe a density gradient method for the isolation of CSCs, where the heart is digested by a 0.2% collagenase II solution. To characterize the isolated CSCs, we evaluated the expression of CSCs/cardiac markers Sca-1, NKX2-5, and GATA4, and pluripotency/stemness markers OCT4, SOX2, and Nanog. We also determined the proliferation potential of isolated CSCs by culturing them in a Petri dish and assessing the expression of the proliferation marker Ki-67. For evaluating the differentiation potential of CSCs, we selected seven- to ten-days cultured CSCs. We transferred them to a new plate with a cardiomyocyte differentiation medium. They are incubated in a cell culture incubator for 12 days, while the differentiation medium is changed every three days. The differentiated CSCs express cardiomyocyte-specific markers: actinin and troponin I. Thus, CSCs isolated with this protocol have stemness and cardiac markers, and they have a potential for proliferation and differentiation toward cardiomyocyte lineage.

The overall goal of this article is to standardize the protocol for the isolation, characterization, and differentiation of cardiac stem cells (CSCs) from the adult mouse heart. Here, we describe a density gradient centrifugation method to isolate murine CSCs and elaborated methods for CSC culture, proliferation, and differentiation into cardiomyocytes.

Isolation and Culture of Primary Oral Keratinocytes from the Adult Mouse Palate

For years, most studies involving keratinocytes have been conducted using human and mouse skin epidermal keratinocytes. Recently, oral keratinocytes have attracted attention because of their unique function and characteristics. They maintain the homeostasis of the oral epithelium and serve as resources for applications in regenerative therapies. However, in vitro studies that use oral primary keratinocytes from adult mice have been limited due to the lack of an efficient and well-established culture protocol. Here, oral primary keratinocytes were isolated from the palate tissues of adult mice and cultured in a commercial low-calcium medium supplemented with a chelexed-serum. Under these conditions, keratinocytes were maintained in a proliferative or stem cell-like state, and their differentiation was inhibited even after increased passages. Marker expression analysis showed that the cultured oral keratinocytes expressed the basal cell markers p63, K14, and &#945;6-integrin and were negative for the differentiation marker K13 and the fibroblast marker PDGFR&#945;. This method produced viable and culturable cells suitable for downstream applications in the study of oral epithelial stem cell functions in vitro.

The present protocol describes the isolation and culture of oral keratinocytes derived from the adult mouse palate. An evaluation method using immunostaining is also reported.

Nuclei Isolation from Adult Mouse Kidney for Single-Nucleus RNA-Sequencing

The kidneys regulate diverse biological processes such as water, electrolyte, and acid-base homeostasis. Physiological functions of the kidney are executed by multiple cell types arranged in a complex architecture across the corticomedullary axis of the organ. Recent advances in single-cell transcriptomics have accelerated the understanding of cell type-specific gene expression in renal physiology and disease. However, enzyme-based tissue dissociation protocols, which are frequently utilized for single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq), require mostly fresh (non-archived) tissue, introduce transcriptional stress responses, and favor the selection of abundant cell types of the kidney cortex resulting in an underrepresentation of cells of the medulla.
Here, we present a protocol that avoids these problems. The protocol is based on nuclei isolation at 4 &#176;C from frozen kidney tissue. Nuclei are isolated from a central piece of the mouse kidney comprised of the cortex, outer medulla, and inner medulla. This reduces the overrepresentation of cortical cells typical for whole-kidney samples for the benefit of medullary cells such that data will represent the entire corticomedullary axis at sufficient abundance. The protocol is simple, rapid, and adaptable and provides a step towards the standardization of single-nuclei transcriptomics in kidney research.

Here, we present a protocol to isolate high-quality nuclei from frozen mouse kidneys that improve the representation of medullary kidney cell types and avoids the gene expression artifacts from enzymatic tissue dissociation.
